It's pumpkin time!

This Saturday was our annual pumpkin decorating day. Big-G really enjoyed this project. He got to cut with scissors and use glue, some of his favorite things. Middle-G got in on the act a little, but it didn't take him long before he just started throwing all the tissue paper on the floor. Destructive is his middle name... or at least it should be.

They boys also had a great time at the football game on Friday night. Unfortunately I forgot the camera, which is a shame because they were hugging each other and acting so cute. Big-G loves the cheerleaders. I think he wants to be one! Middle-G loves the marching band. He just can't stop tapping his toe and clapping his hands whenever they play. He is extremely musical. Little-G got to stay home and sleep on Uncle for the evening because it was soooooo cold out. The boys were like little frozen popcicles by the time we walked home.

I'm sure Big-G's would like to mention how much fun he had watching the tree trimmers put all of the branches into the chipper on Saturday morning. Even Middle-G was having fun watching them cut some of the big trees in our back yard. Usually they get excited when the Village sends the chipper through the neighborhood on Fridays, so it was pretty cool to have one at our own house.

Lastly, we dropped the boys off at Nana's and Papa's house on Sunday after church, so that we could go to Red Robbin for lunch. Uncle came along, and we had a very nice meal. It's always a treat for a mom to be able to eat an entire meal without feeding anyone else or cleaning up something messy. Thank you to Nana and Papa for giving the boys lunch and keeping them occupied. They had lots of fun of course (a few pictures below) and were sad when they had to go.

Sweet and innocet Middle-G.

Big-G showing me how many leaves he collected. I think he might have missed a few.

Middle-G mowing the lawn. What a gift it will be when he can push a real mower!!

Here is a real smile from the very big Little-G!!
